Be Part of the Solution

The housing crisis in the North Country and the Adirondacks affects all of us: It threatens to displace longtime residents who can’t find accessible places to live and discourages newcomers from taking jobs and moving here. As a member of the Adirondack Roots team, you’ll play an important part helping people find safe housing they can afford or stay in the ones they have.
